Line 17:
The most common targets of the boys' pranks were their elderly neighbor Tom Anderson, their hapless school classmate Stuart Stevenson, and most of the faculty of their high school. The character who took the worst abuse was Principal McVicker, who was driven to drink, medication, and in the finale, an apparently fatal heart attack.
 
The dimwitted duo were, in turn, [[Foil|foiledfoil]]ed by the [[The Snark Knight|sarcastic]] Daria Morgendorffer, who occasionally tricked them into publicly embarrassing themselves, and local hot-rodder/gangleader Todd, whom they admired (as the closest thing to a father they ever had) but who invariably ended up maiming them.
 
It horrified the [[Moral Guardians]] from the get-go, and a few of its more controversial aspects had to be dropped -- notablydropped—notably Beavis' pyromania, after they [[Big No|reportedly]] inspired a viewing child to incinerate a kitchen.
 
Also spurring objections were the boys' constant use of fireworks to blow things up, along with their tendency to amuse themselves with physical violence and animal cruelty, most notably the infamous pilot episode "Frog Baseball".
Line 29:
DVD and VHS releases of the series have left out most of the [[Music Video]] segments due to rights issues, losing a lot of the series' best moments.
 
In late 2011, the show returned to MTV; while the format had been slightly tweaked -- thetweaked—the snark segments now covered both music videos ''and'' MTV original shows such as ''[[Jersey Shore]]'' and ''True Life'', presumably to prevent the sort of rights issues that surround the original series' snark segments -- thesegments—the show remained the same otherwise.

Line 117:
** They appeared in one episode in ''[[The Brothers Grunt]]''. Butt-Head made a [[Cameo]] in ''[[The Head]]''.
*** In the pilot, Butt-head was trying to get footage of [[The Head]], but he got kicked out.
** And those who like ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]'', [['''Beavis and Butthead]]''' might appear in ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]] 2''.
** Beavis and Butt-head were originally going to cross over with Daria when Daria got her own spin-off, but the show was so successful, the B&B crossover idea was dropped.
* [[Curse Cut Short]]: In the film ''Beavis and Butt-Head Do America'':
Line 150:
* [[Dude Looks Like a Lady]]: One [[Running Gag]] has Beavis and Butt-head constantly refer to long-haired men in music videos as "chicks". Sometimes they go as far as hitting on them.
* [[Dumbass Has a Point]]: Some of their comments on the music videos they watch, as well as on life in general, actually make a lot of sense, in a weird way.
* [[Early Installment Weirdness]]: The earlier episodes of ''[['''Beavis and Butthead]]''''' are a completely different show from the later episodes most viewers are familiar with. Rather than focusing on the consequences of the duo's [[Idiot Plot|stupidity]] in the usual mundane style of Mike Judge, the antics of the two are told in a wackier, more [[Mind Screw|surreal]] tone, with [[Refuge in Audacity]] being more commonplace. In addition, the animation's even cruder than it already was in the later seasons, Butt-head's voice is different, and there are stronger indications of [[Totally Radical]] (i.e. metal guitar riffs).
* [[Episode Title Card]]
* [[Every Episode Ending]]: Beavis and Butt-Head try to think of something cool, and say "Let'th go do thomething cool."
Line 165:
* [[Foot Focus]]: Although there isn't really any in the show itself, there was one music video by The Go-Gos on the show that had some close-ups of the girls' feet causing Beavis to admit that he likes women with nice feet. Butt-Head, however, didn't seem very interested.
* [[Franchise Zombie]]: Subjective from a [[Word of God]] standpoint; Judge has pretty much stated that the last couple of seasons were forced upon him by [[MTV]], who wanted to keep the cash-cow show going. Not that it kept the episodes from still being pretty damn funny in their own right.
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: [[Beavis and Butthead/Radar| There was enough to warrant it’s own page]].
* [[The Ghost]]: It is implied that the duo live with their mothers who are said to be prostitutes. They sometimes talk about them and call to them (mostly in the music video segments) but we never see them.
* [[Good Ol' Boy]]: Tom Anderson.
Line 292:
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: The title characters.
* [[The Renaissance Age of Animation]]
* [[Revival]]: Now they make fun of [[Reality Show|Reality Shows]]s.
* [[Rule 34]]: "[[The Cinema Snob|Beaver and Buttface]]"
* [[Sadistic Choice]]: During "Massage" the boys are left with two choices. Either give a massage to a disgusting old man, or get arrested for disrupting the massage guys business. They(Very reluctantly) choose the old man.
Line 320:
** "I am Cornholio, I need TP for my bunghole"!
* [[Spiritual Successor]]: Due to the video mocking, the show has been considered one for [[Mystery Science Theater 3000]].
** Subverted and subverted big time with spin-off ''[[Daria]]'' and Judge's follow-up project ''[[King of the Hill]]'', both of which ran screaming away from ''[['''Beavis and Butthead]]''''' tonewise.
{{quote|'''Beavis:''' ''"I AM THE GREAT CORNHOLIO!!!'' I need teepee for my bunghole!"}}
** Also, this may be like ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]''.
Line 381:
* [[Who Names Their Kid "Dude"?|Who Names Their Kid "Butt-Head"?]]
* [[Would Hurt a Child]]: Coach Buzzcut and Muddy Grimes (who spends half of [[The Movie]] trying to hunt down and kill the boys).
* [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere (disambiguation)]]: Beavis and Butt-Head are both this to Tod, regardless of how much of a violent [[Jerkass]] he is to them.
* [[Yet Another Christmas Carol]]: The episode "Huh Huh Humbug" has Beavis in place of Scrooge. Anderson, Van Driessen, and Buzzcut and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future, respectively.
* [[You Get What You Pay For]]: Van Driessen hired our heroes to clean his house as a way of teaching them the value of hard work. He only gave them a dollar each for their work, but in the end Van Driessen got what he deserved when he sees that Beavis and Butt-Head destroyed his irreplacable 8-track collection.
